There is another patch of Transport services making the game working again a little better.
We fixed these issues:
- Planes could throw an error and freeze a game, under special conditions.
- Planes could move the opposite way when changing the runway.
- Trains had still another 3 cases when they could perform the wrong movement over rails.
- Trains could not pass one switch more than once in pathfinding (meanwhile we need to check both sides of the switch).
- after some changes during EA train stopped turning back in the stations, when they had to use the station just for turning itself without loading/unloading passengers.
- trains could throw an error when attempting to find a no longer existing way, which correctly should not exist, but we still do not know, why there still was an empty reference as we are unable to replicate it... Anyway, it will no longer cause any issue even if it happens again.
We also added one useful way how to fix if the game again does something wrong on rails, or you will cause some huge rail jam...
When a rail shows a yellow arrow, it means there is a train that prevents other trains to move on that segment, in the opposite direction. Sometimes, mainly when you are changing rails under heavy traffic some trains might get confused and forget to tell that arrow, they left the segment. Still, we are not aware of which specific conditions this occurs. But when it does you get stucked trains meanwhile nothing is blocking them.
Solution: Just open rail switches and once hovering your mouse over the broken arrow, or part you need to clean up press so the arrow gets green and all trains will move again.
I hope you like the patch and we would like to thank you, who helped us to find some of these issues again.
